Chemical Structure

Metformin Impurity 43 CAS CATO-C4X-1220543 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Metformin Impurity 43.

Metformin Impurity 43 (CAS CATO-C4X-1220543) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C4H10N4OH2O4S and a molecular weight of 228.22 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Metformin Impurity 43 (C4H10N4OH2O4S) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Metformin Impurity 43 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
